Sun, 7 Nov 2010 Source: Ghana Cycling Association

The National Cycling Team, the “Golden Bikers” will pitch up their pedal

strength against 14 other African countries in this year’s edition of the Africa

Continental Cycling Championship slated for Rwanda, Kigali from 9th – 14th

November, 2010 under the able sponsorship of Promasidor Ghana Limited, producers

of Cowbell Milk.

The 4-man cycling team which is made up of power “pedalist” Samuel Amin, Nuru

Pardie, Henry Tetteh Djangmah and Tamale-based roller, Aminu Mohammed with

Technical Director Shaaban Mohammed as the sole official will be pitching their

strength against the likes of Namibia, South Africa, Zambia, Morocco, Egypt, and

host nation Rwanda who placed 4th in last year’s edition.

This year’s championship will include the men and women team Time Trial over

40Km, the individual time trial (men & women) 33 Km and 17.2Km respectively and

the Road Race-Men and Women Elite over 144km and 60 Km respectively.

Ghana’s 5-man contingent has become deficient of 4 more persons (2 cyclist and 2

officials) as a result of financial hiccups.

The Ghana Cycling Association is once again excessively grateful to Promasidor

Ghana Limited for their timely assistance in this regard. The association

believes this gesture has really cemented the re-branding exercise the

Association is going through and we hope the bond between the two parties will

yield enormous benefits.

Meanwhile, the Executive Committee of the Ghana Cycling Association, the

National Sports Council and the entire stakeholders of the sport added their

goodwill support to the team and hope they make Ghana proud in the country of

thousand hills.

The team has since left for Kigali.
